Guest Backson Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 Hello, i went to an industrial concert the other night, and now I can't hear very well out of my left ear. I wore some cheap foam chemist ear plugs, which were alright for sound protection, but for about two songs I had a speaker very very close on my left. having said that, I did spend most of the time at the back where it was quieter. usually having bad hearing after a concert is normal, but its the third day and I'm still experiencing the problem, which I find strange. Is this normal, or did I just make a giant leap towards deafness? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

halisray Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 place your ear next to a loud speaker and see if you can hear anything - if not then you're fucked not but seriously; go see a doctor if it is troubling you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Backson Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 alright... i was hoping for a simple, happy, non-doctor solution. plus, I should probably invest in a piar of those awesome expensive earplugs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Backson Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 okay, i clean my ears and my hearing has improved. so my theory is that the earplugs were terrible (coupled with the fact i need to clean my ears more often) and pushed earwax close to my eardrum. so my new plan is to get a device that will healp me clean my ears properly, and get some nice earplugs too. thanks for the advice anyhoo.

modey Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 go to the doctor and get your ears syringed. you'll be surprised at what you can hear afterwards! i saw sunn o))) a few years ago without earplugs. easily the loudest gig i've ever been to (om comes close but at least i could go somewhere less loud at that gig). my ears were ringing for at least two days afterwards. but returned to normal after a while, or i got used to it or something. now i take my expensive earplugs everywhere on my keychain, i even wear them at work (in a factory with lots of printing presses).

Guest Iain C Posted December 7, 2010 Share Posted December 7, 2010 u can probably look forward to a lifetime of intermittent tinnitus. mine comes and goes quite rarely... no more than once a week or so, but it's the sort of thing that can only get worse, never better. i've only been to three truly loud shows, too - Sunn o))) (remember that one dan?), Merzbow (remember that one dan?) and MBV (you didn't go to that one, dan). these days i'm more careful and wear earplugs if they're offered. and i avoid nightclubs like the plague.
